Chapter 08, Problem 024. A block of mass m = 1.30 kg is dropped from height h = 59.0 cm onto a spring of spring constant k = 1130 N/m (see the figure). Find the maximum distance the spring is compressed.

Solutions

Expert Solution

This can be solved by law of conservation of energy. Initally the spring is not compressed so we have only potential energy due to height of block. After block hits the spring the potential energy of block is stored in the form of potential energy of spring.The detailed solution is given below:

Thumbs up if you like the solution :)

A block of mass 4kg is dropped from a height of 2 meters on Earth. If that block is taken to a different planet, where the acceleration due to gravity is 1/4 as strong as it is on Earth, how high should the block be dropped so that it hits the ground with the same final velocity as on Earth?

Block A in the figure below has mass 1.30 kg , and block B has mass 2.85 kg . The blocks are forced together, compressing a spring S between them; then the system is released from rest on a level, frictionless surface. The spring, which has negligible mass, is not fastened to either block and drops to the surface after it has expanded. Block B acquires a speed of 1.20 m/s . Part A What is the final speed of...

An object with mass m = 0.6 kg is dropped from the top of the building and falls 21 m down in front of the cafe. 1.1 Calculate the speed of the object as it hits the ground and calculate the time for the fall. Neglect in this question the air resistance. In a more accurate calculation we need to take air resistance into account. In a wind tunnel the air resistance of the object has been measured giving rise...

A block with mass m =6.2 kg is hung from a vertical spring. When the mass hangs in equilibrium, the spring stretches x = 0.22 m. While at this equilibrium position, the mass is then given an initial push downward at v = 4.6 m/s. The block oscillates on the spring without friction. After t = 0.32 s what is the speed of the block? At t = 0.32 s what is the magnitude of the net force on the...
